Large-scale Degradation of the Tocantins-Araguaia River Basin
Pelicice, Fernando Mayer; Agostinho, Angelo Antonio; Akama, Alberto; Andrade Filho, José Dilermando; Azevedo-Santos, Valter M. [UNESP]Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:42:34Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-10-01; The Tocantins-Araguaia Basin is one of the largest river systems in South America, located entirely within Brazilian territory. In the last decades, capital-concentrating activities such as agribusiness, mining, and hydropower promoted extensive changes in land cover, hydrology, and environmental condit...

Jeliazkov, Alienor; Mijatovic, Darko; Chantepie, Stéphane; Andrew, Nigel; Arlettaz, Raphaël; Barbaro, Luc; Barsoum, Nadia; Bartonova, AlenaThe use of functional information in the form of species traits plays an important role in explaining biodiversity patterns and responses to environmental changes. Although relationships between species composition, their traits, and the environment have been extensively studied on a case-by-case basis, results are variable, and it remains unclear how generalizable these relationships are across ecosystems, tax...

Stream fish metacommunity organisation across a Neotropical ecoregion: The role...
Borges, Pedro Paulino; Dias, Murilo Sversut; Carvalho, Fernando Rogério; Casatti, Lilian [UNESP]; Pompeu, Paulo Santos; Cetra, MauricioMade available in DSpace on 2020-12-12T02:42:33Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-05-01; Understanding how assemblages are structured in space and the factors promoting their distributions is one of the main goals in Ecology, however, studies regarding the distribution of organisms at larger scales remain biased towards terrestrial groups. We attempt to understand if the structure of stream...
A multiple hypothesis approach to explain species richness patterns in neotropi...
Vieira, Thiago Bernardi; Pavanelli, C. S.; Casatti, Lilian; Smith, Welber Senteio; Benedito, Evanilde; Mazzoni, Rosana; Sánchez-Botero, Jorge IvánSeveral hypotheses are used to explain species richness patterns. Some of them (e.g. species-area, species-energy, environment-energy, water-energy, terrestrial primary productivity, environmental spatial heterogeneity, and climatic heterogeneity) are known to explain species richness patterns of terrestrial organisms, especially when they are combined. For aquatic organisms, however, it is unclear if these hyp...

Effects of area and available energy on fish assemblages of tropical streams
Bastos Gonçalves, Bruno [UNESP]; Tejerina-Garro, Francisco Leonardo; Assis De Carvalho, RodrigoMade available in DSpace on 2018-12-11T17:11:00Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2017-01-01; A central issue in fish community ecology is to understand how the size of the drainage area and the available energy influence fish species diversity and their spatial distribution. In the present study, we tested whether the species-area relationship (represented by drainage area) and species-energy a...
